My master gave me a death mission: to go down the mountain and retrieve his granddaughter.

"Little girl, you'd better think this through. The evidence is right here, and there are so many people watching. Even if Uncle Hat comes, I'm still in the right. Don't blame me for not warning you, or you might get expelled from your school."

"How about this, I'll take a loss and you won't have to pay half the money. I know you're a young woman, and life isn't easy for you. Just give me a few thousand yuan, okay?"

Seeing that the girl had been persuaded by the young man who suddenly appeared, the stall owner began to worry. The onlookers were unaware of the situation, but the truth was just as the young man had said: it was indeed a trap set by the stall owner for the girl.

This wasn't the first time he'd done something like this. This stall owner often roamed around antique streets, specifically targeting lone shoppers, using the same tactics as now.

To avoid arousing suspicion, this stall owner would always move from place to place after each hit, using this method to scam many people and make a lot of money.

Today, seeing this girl's delicate and frail appearance, and knowing she's all alone, I figured I'd take advantage of her.

They had already fooled the girl and were just waiting for her family to send money over when they were done. But who would have thought that a troublemaker would suddenly appear?

He even directly called Uncle Hat. Although even if Uncle Hat came, he might not be able to see through his scheme, the stall owner was afraid that his trick would be exposed and he might be the one to be sent to jail.

There's no other way but to give in now. I'll try to earn whatever I can, as long as it doesn't get to Uncle Hat's place.

"Hey boss, you sound scared, don't tell me you really set this young lady up!"

Su Muchen saw through the stall owner's intentions at a glance. The reason he was so certain that this was a trap set by the stall owner was because he saw through the stall owner's tricks.

Su Muchen had already used his divine sense to investigate and found that there were several scratched porcelain pieces hidden in the box behind the stall owner, which were clearly intended to set a trap.

Moreover, under the influence of divine sense, the white porcelain bottle that the stall owner was using to swindle people was not an antique from the Song Dynasty. To be precise, it was a modern imitation, produced only a few months ago.

Not only this white porcelain bottle, but several porcelain items in the box are modern handicrafts. Nothing on this stall is genuine, which shows that the stall owner specializes in swindling and deception.

It goes without saying that the scratch was deliberately made by the stall owner, just waiting to see who would be unlucky enough to fall into the trap he set. And sure enough, that girl fell into the stall owner's trap.

Seeing that the girl was being bullied to the point of breaking down, Su Muchen had no choice but to stand up for her.

"Kid, don't talk nonsense. I'm not afraid at all. I just felt sorry for that girl and took pity on her. That's why I'd rather suffer a loss myself than ruin her future. But you, you're the one who jumped in to cause trouble. You'll end up getting that girl expelled from school. What are you really up to?"

The stall owner looked quite righteous, and the onlookers couldn't help but praise him.

"Hmm...it seems like you're right! How about this, once Uncle Hat arrives and it's confirmed that this beautiful young lady was responsible, I'm willing to buy this white porcelain vase, no bargaining, boss. What do you think?"

The stall owner wanted to shift the blame onto Su Muchen, and Su Muchen, as he wished, directly took the blame for the girl.

"Ah, big brother, you don't have to do this. Don't drag me into this. It will make Ying'er feel really bad."

Seeing that Su Muchen was willing to get involved in this mess just to stand up for her, and even spent hundreds of thousands to buy that antique, the girl felt very embarrassed.

"Beautiful lady, don't panic. It's just a few hundred thousand, I can afford it. Of course, it depends on whether the boss has the ability to get me to pay that amount."

"Boss, what do you think of my suggestion?"

Su Muchen grinned at the stall owner again, a smile that made the stall owner's heart race.

"Um, this..."

Just as the boss was wondering how to answer, someone in the crowd shouted.

"Uncle Hat is here!"

Everyone looked toward the street corner, where a group of four men in uniforms and hats were walking toward them, led by a policewoman.

When everyone saw the policewoman, their eyes lit up, especially the men, whose eyes gleamed.

The policewoman, dressed in a crisp uniform, stood tall and straight like a pine tree, the star-shaped epaulets on her epaulets gleaming coldly in the sunlight.

Her long, jet-black hair was neatly tied inside her police cap, with a few stray strands falling casually to either side of her face, adding to her gentle beauty.

The policewoman's face was delicate and three-dimensional, with eyebrows like distant mountains, resembling the winding ink lines of the mountains, exuding both gentleness and determination.

Her bright, large eyes, like the dazzling stars in the night sky, revealed determination and courage as they moved, as if they could see through all lies and pretenses.

Beneath his high, straight nose were beautifully shaped lips, which were now slightly pursed, exuding focus and composure.

Judging from the policewoman's age, she was at most twenty-three or twenty-four years old, but the epaulets on her uniform were of a higher rank than the male officers following behind her. Two bars and two stars, according to the police system's rank system, this was already a second-level police inspector, belonging to the local backbone.

It must be said that this policewoman is indeed beautiful. Although she doesn't wear much makeup, it perfectly showcases her natural beauty. Coupled with her uniform that represents the people's justice, what man could resist such temptation?

Among the beauties Su Muchen had met, Liu Ziyan and the girl in front of him paled in comparison to this policewoman. The only one who could rival her was Lin Wan'er, Su Muchen's fiancée with whom he had a one-year engagement.

Soon, four men in hats arrived at the scene. The crowd spontaneously made way for them. The policewoman raised an eyebrow, her gaze sweeping over the tightly packed crowd before finally settling on the three men standing tensely in front of the stall. Her voice was clear and sharp, like shattered jade striking stone: "Who called the police? What happened?"

Upon seeing this, the stall owner immediately adopted a pitiful expression, quickly stepped forward to stop the policewoman, and pointed to the white porcelain bottle on the ground, crying out:

"Officer, you've finally arrived! This young lady..."

The stall owner embellished the story, but it was all his own account, making himself sound incredibly wronged.

"In the end, I kindly offered the young lady a few thousand yuan in compensation and let it go, but this guy came along and insisted on making a big scene. You have to stand up for me!"

As the stall owner spoke, he secretly observed the policewoman's expression. Seeing her brows furrow slightly, he quickly added:

"This bottle is a treasure passed down from my grandfather, worth hundreds of thousands. I'm heartbroken and helpless, which is why I thought of asking her to compensate me a little bit as a token of my appreciation..."

"Are you sure what you're saying is true? Deceiving a police officer is a serious crime. You should think carefully."

The policewoman had a stern expression on her face. Naturally, she wouldn't listen to the stall owner's one-sided story and sternly warned him not to distort the facts.

"Yes... I wouldn't dare to speak recklessly..."

Faced with such a stern policewoman, the stall owner trembled in fear and even stuttered a little. But since things had come to this, he could only grit his teeth and persevere.
